gets a time machine and travels back to the 1970s picks up some gay dude with really high waisted jeans and brings him back to the modern day overall he is disappointed with the state of the world today but he still believes in the power of love and homosexuality i give him a computer and hes fine with all that but thinks that social media is quite orwellian he does make a tumblr blog tho and uses it to reblog pictures of shirtless men and digital fanart of media that he has not yet heard of but he finds the styles entrancing. he makes a post about his interpretation of the exorcist as a gay film which really blows up and makes people think but ultimately he is canceled for using outdated slurs
As far as I can tell, the “old personality”, who I was until my later 30s around March 2020, was but didn’t realize it. And the “new personality”, who I am now since Covid spread to my brain in 2020 and rerolled everything, is not, but still uses mental structures and ways of thinking crafted under and for the old personality.
I’ve actually had amnesia and I explain it to people as the opposite of that – with amnesia I had no access to past memories (that’s “retrograde” amnesia, I also had “anterograde”, inability to form new ones like in Memento) but I was fundamentally the same person, with the same instincts and tendencies; across this I maintained full continuity of memory but I’m fundamentally a different person.

Thinking about how ‘90s culture had to incorporate the rise of the “creative class” as the decade went on. Like, looking at Clerks (1994) today, the construction of “riffing on pop culture” as a dead-end retail thing as vs. college-educated strivers seems weird, though I suppose even then a major theme was Dante’s gf insisting he’s college material
RAMPAGE by Duane & Brando rhymes "kong" and "dong", closest I was able to dredge up from half-remembered lines and some searching. I still *feel* as if I've heard "donkey kong" rhymed with "konkey dong", but I can't put a voice to it.
i think it’s so funny that tumblr had twitter polls for a week, created every sexy man/entity contest we could in that time, got bored with that, devolved into dadaist baking recipes and art pieces, and then swerved into creating complex mathematical experiments in order to prove laws of statistical analysis and human psychology. great work everyone, no notes
some SICK FUCK just responded to a FIVE YEAR OLD COMMENT I left on a Hamilton animatic to say “I don’t actually care about this comment, I just wanted to remind you you had a Hamilton phase 5 years ago”. What kind of MALICIOUS,
